Software developer Preton, which focuses on printing cost reduction solutions, has released a software as a service (SaaS) edition of its PretonSaver software.
The new SaaS edition of PretonSaver is designed to help managed services providers (MSPs) and IT managers optimize toner consumption and reduce printing costs for small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
PretonSaver is designed to optimize the amount of toner consumed during printing processes. Using Preton’s Pixel Optimizer, the software intelligently identifies and removes wasteful pixels without visibly impacting quality.
The new SaaS edition of PretonSaver combines the cost savings benefits of Preton’s Pixel Optimizer technology with service-based pricing and advanced cloud-based remote configuration and multiple site management capabilities.
Along with the SaaS version, PretonSaver also opens opportunities for MPSs to offer new, flexible pricing schemes based on actual printing patterns. By gathering an extensive array of information from all networked and local printers for each print job (including page coverage measurements and related printing usage parameters), PretonSaver is able measure SMB printing trends. Also included with the MSP offerings are streamlined service calls and consumable shipments to customers.
“We are offering the new SaaS edition of PretonSaver as a flexible pay-as-you-print service with no hardware requirements or set up fees,” explains Preton CEO Ori Eizenberg. “This creates a risk-free opportunity for MPSs to reduce printing costs as well as create tremendous flexibility in pricing capabilities.”
A free trial of the SaaS edition of PretonSaver is available.
